At the request of the prime sponsor, Senate Education committee members tabled House Bill 1218.
Rep. Mark Mickelson asked committee members to table the bill, which would have allowed any school district to designate up to $0.25 of their capital outlay levy to fund a post-secondary technical institute.
HB 1218 previously passed the House after being introduced in a House State Affairs committee meeting as a hoghouse amendment to a bill that was previously parked as vehicle legislation.
ASBSD was monitoring the bill.
